Inverse Problems in Radiative Transfer : a Review
نویسنده
چکیده
An elementary introduction to the inverse problem of radiative transfer as applied to remote measurements of infrared radiation from planetary atmospheres is presented, along with a review of work which has been done on the problem. Particular attention is given to the problems of inferring vertical temperature profiles and water vapor distributions in the earth's atmosphere. The principle methods which have been developed for solving these problems are discussed briefly. Examples of applications of temperature and water vapor inversions to both synthetic data anddata taken with an IRIS instrument at balloon altitudes are presented.

Inverse Boundary Design Problem of Combined Radiation-convection Heat Transfer in Laminar Recess Flow
In the present work, an inverse analysis of combined radiation and laminar forced convection heat transfer in a two-dimensional channel with variable cross sections is performed. The conjugate gradient method is used to find the temperature distribution over the heater surface to satisfy the prescribed temperature and heat flux distributions over the design surface. The fluid is considered to b...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of the Application of Differential Evolution and Simulated Annealing in Radiative Transfer Problems
The radiative transfer phenomenon is modeled by an integro-differential equation known as Boltzmann equation. This equation describes mathematically the interaction of the radiation with the participating medium, i.e., a medium that may absorb, scatter and emit radiation. In this sense, this work presents a study regarding the estimation of radiative properties in a one-dimensional participatin...

متن کاملRadiative heat transfer: many-body effects
Heat transfer by electromagnetic radiation is one of the common methods of energy transfer between objects. Using the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, we have studied the effect of particle arrangement in the transmission of radiative heat in many-body systems. In order to show the effect of the structure morphology on the collective properties, the radiative heat transfer is studied and the re...
متن کاملComputational Study of Radiative and Convective Heat Transfer in a Cylindrical Combustion Chamber
In this paper, the effect of cold air on the fluid flow inside the cylindrical combustion chamber and its wall temperature distribution have been studied computationally, taking into account the effect of radiative heat transfer from hot gases. The results have been compared with the case that radiative heat transfer was neglected. It is observed that the reattachment length increases when incr...
